I'm getting Hard Disk Drive errors. I left Friday to go on a trip to Tampa, FL and when I returned yesterday the 26th, my notebook wouldn't come in. I've ran every tests and it states that I need a Hard Drive Disk 1 and No Hard Drive can be found. It also wants me to insert a Hard Drive Disk to continue and I didn't get one when I bought the hp. All of my Grad work, 2020-2021 classroom plans, and family fotos are on my desktop.

You need to provide us the detailed model number of the laptop if you want further assistance.

OK, thanks -- from the HP specs, looks like your PC has a regular 1TB SATA laptop drive. That is easy to find online.
If your PC is a 2016 model or newer, you should see if you can make a bootable USB recovery drive using the HP cloud recovery tool on a working PC.
The recovery drive can then be used to install Win10 and the HP drivers and utilities that originally came with your PC.
